Spanish Eyes, English Words

Are you a writer living in Spain? Or maybe you live in the UK but your heart is in Spain and so you write about it like EOS blogger Rosie Walters. If you fit into either of these categories, you may be interested in joining the Facebook group Writers In Spain, which I have recently set up. At the moment it's a very small group - well, Rome wasn't built in a day - but I'm hoping to grow it into a supportive community where writers living in Spain or writing about Spain can connect with other writers, promote their work and offer tips and suggestions to fellow writers.

If you want to join the group, I'd ask that you post a short introduction to let other group members know what you do and how you came to be writing about Spain. And since we don't want the group to be just a link dropping place - there are enough of those already - it would be great if you could post the odd writing tip, or suggestions for increasing writing earnings. Maybe you know a great site to write for, or even more important, one to avoid. Or perhaps you have a great writing-related anecdote to share.

The only criteria for joining the group are that you are a writer living in Spain, or living in another country and writing about Spain. Obviously you don't need to be writing exclusively about Spain, but there needs to be a Spanish connection, as I really don't want this to be a general writers group - there are plenty of those around already, but I haven't been able to find one geared towards writers who live in or write about Spain.

I'm really looking forward to building a supportive community for writers and hanging out with like minded people with a love of writing and all things Spanish. Hasta pronto, mis amigos!
